Voronoi conjectured that any parallelotope is affinely equivalent to a Voronoi polytope. A parallelotope is defined by a set of $m$ facet vectors $p_i$ and defines a set of $m$ lattice vectors $t_i$, $1\le i\le m$. We show that Voronoi's…
A parallelotope is a polytope whose translation copies fill space without gaps and intersections by interior points. Voronoi conjectured that each parallelotope is an affine image of the Dirichlet domain of a lattice, which is a Voronoi…
We show that the Voronoi conjecture is true for parallelohedra with simply connected $\delta$-surface. Namely, we show that if the boundary of parallelohedron $P$ remains simply connected after removing closed non-primitive faces of…
This article proves the Voronoi conjecture on parallelotopes in the special case of 3-irreducible tilings. Parallelotopes are convex polytopes which tile the Euclidean space by their translated copies, like in the honeycomb arrangement of…
For a given lattice, we establish an equivalence involving a closed zone of the corresponding Voronoi polytope, a lamina hyperplane of the corresponding Delaunay partition and a quadratic form of rank 1 being an extreme ray of the…
George Voronoi (1908, 1909) introduced two important reduction methods for positive quadratic forms: the reduction with perfect forms, and the reduction with L-type domains, often called domains of Delaunay type. The first method is…
By a {\em Voronoi parallelotope} $P(a)$ we mean a parallelotope determined by a non-negative quadratic form $a$. It was studied by Voronoi in his famous memoir. For a set of vectors $\mathcal P$, we call its {\em dual} a set of vectors…
A parallelotope $P$ is a polytope that admits a facet-to-facet tiling of space by translation copies of $P$ along a lattice. The Voronoi cell $P_V(L)$ of a lattice $L$ is an example of a parallelotope. A parallelotope can be uniquely…
We use Lie sphere geometry to describe two large categories of generalized Voronoi diagrams that can be encoded in terms of the Lie quadric, the Lie inner product, and polyhedra. The first class consists of diagrams defined in terms of…
Voronoi cells of a discrete set in Euclidean space are known as generalized polyhedra. We identify polyhedral cells of a discrete set through a direction cone. For an arbitrary set we distinguish polyhedral from non-polyhedral cells using…
We prove the Voronoi conjecture for five-dimensional parallelohedra. Namely, we show that if a convex five-dimensional polytope $P$ tiles $\mathbb R^5$ with translations, then $P$ is an affine image of the Dirichlet-Voronoi polytope for a…
Let S be a basic closed semi-algebraic set in R^n and P the corresponding preordering in R[X_1,...,X_n]. We examine for which polynomials f there exist identities f+\ep q \in P for all \ep>0. These are precisely the elements of the…
George Voronoi (1908-09) introduced two important reduction methods for positive quadratic forms: the reduction with perfect forms, and the reduction with L-type domains. A form is perfect if can be reconstructed from all representations of…
Iso-edge domains are a variant of the iso-Delaunay decomposition introduced by Voronoi. They were introduced by Baranovskii & Ryshkov in order to solve the covering problem in dimension $5$. In this work we revisit this decomposition and…
The Voronoi conjecture on parallelohedra claims that for every convex polytope $P$ that tiles Euclidean $d$-dimensional space with translations there exists a $d$-dimensional lattice such that $P$ and the Voronoi polytope of this lattice…
The perfect cone compactification is a toroidal compactification which can be defined for locally symmetric varieties. Let $\overline{D_{L}/\widetilde{O}^{+}(L)}^{p}$ be the perfect cone compactification of the quotient of the type IV…
We prove the second Voronoi conjecture on parallelohedra for zonotope. We show that for a given face-to-face tiling of d-dimensional Euclidean space into parallel copies of zonotope Z there are d vectors, connecting centers of zonotopes…
We compare two rational polyhedral admissible decompositions of the cone of positive definite quadratic forms: the perfect cone decomposition and the 2nd Voronoi decomposition. We determine which cones belong to both the decompositions,…
The hypermetric cone $\HYP_{n+1}$ is the parameter space of basic Delaunay polytopes in n-dimensional lattice. The cone $\HYP_{n+1}$ is polyhedral; one way of seeing this is that modulo image by the covariance map $\HYP_{n+1}$ is a finite…
A set S of n points in general position in R^d defines the unique Voronoi diagram of S. Its dual tessellation is the Delaunay triangulation (DT) of S. In this paper we consider the parabolic functional on the set of triangulations of S and…
